Review: Ashley Gearing-Me, My Heart and I

Ashley Gearing first came onto the music scene at the age of twelve with a song about a child losing her father and asking the question, “Can you hear me when I talk to you?” Signing to Curb records in 2007, she released a few songs that were very good but didn’t go anywhere. Earlier this year, “Five More Minutes” was released as a single but radio failed to jump on board. Now, she is releasing a song that radio seems to already be picking up better than the previous ones.

“Me, My Heart and I” is a fun, up-tempo song about making it on your own. From the first verse where Ashley sings: “Sorry baby, gotta let you go/This small town moves just a little too slow/I got dreams to dream, things to see/The gypsy girl inside of me just needs to free/It’s not you, it’s me,” she showcases her powerful voice and sets the tone for the rest of the song.

The chorus is catchy and with lines like, “I’m gonna fly, fly, fly/Free down the highway/Make some mistakes, gonna make them my way/Going for a ride/Just me, my heart and I,” this song is sure to be a big hit amongst girls of all ages. This is just the type of song Ashley needed to put herself out there and make it in the male dominated world of radio.
